SmoothCut
SmoothCut is a desktop screen recorder and video editor for Windows and macOS, for people making product demos, tutorials, courses, bug reports, and short videos. It captures screens or windows, microphone and system audio, and optional camera footage. After recording, it can add automatic zooms around cursor activity, smooth and restyle the cursor, arrange camera layouts, reduce background noise, generate captions on the computer, and suggest trims for pauses and filler words. Users can adjust edits on a timeline, add annotations, blur, backgrounds, voice-over, or music, then export MP4 or GIF videos in different aspect ratios. Licensed exports support up to 4K at 60 frames per second; the free version exports at 720p with a watermark. It shares videos by link and exports separate screen, camera, and audio files for further editing. Recording, editing, captions, and rendering run locally; sharing uploads an exported copy.

Output options include MP4, MOV with ProRes 4444 and transparency, GIF, still images, and SRT captions, at resolutions up to 4K. Capture Studio runs as an installed application on macOS, Windows, and Linux; recording, editing, and exporting are local workflows, while AI captions, cutting, and voiceover use online processing and Tenzen Credits.
